tiny.

I tried playing this last night but was getting black walls in the corridor at spawn. Ambient settings didn't seem to make any difference. I downloaded it through the downloader (which should be on the fixed version I'm guessing) but the problem was still there even after replacing the pk4 manually with the one linked above. I played A Night to Remember instead and that worked fine. Any ideas?

Are you running TDM v1.07 Hogwash?

Haha, wow, oh boy...I thought I had already upgraded but even the version number staring me in the face in the menu didn't make me twig. All fine on 1.07, thank you.

I've just finished and didn't realise it was that small, although it was an enjoyable little diversion. With a little polishing and expansion it could be a good little introduction FM for new players.

Talk about tiny, No wonder I didn't hear of this back then. Even the apartment was unnaturally claustrophobic. I expected it to be a lot more difficult to find the hidden chest. I actually expected to get a shovel and dig around a large big garden in the back, to my dismay it was much easier and blander than expected gameplaywise. I did find it weird that I had to kill the guy but heh, I'm not complaining

Boy was it tough though that underground builders structure. Lights, metal floors all make me sad. On the challenge factor it ranked quite high considering how small and how few builders there where. It's tough to say whether I liked it or not. The visuals I think where quite good overall but there wasn't enough for me to give a favourable mention.

Thanks for reworking!

Holy smoke!
This is by far the shortest Thief mission that I've ever played! It took me only 4 minutes to finish it lol
Anyway, as TheUnbeholden said, I was dissapointed at how easy it is to find the hidden chest.
In fact, for me, the whole mission was a walk in the park.
But considering it's historic value, it's a worthy conversion to the 2.0 version of TDM.

Bug report:
-For me, changing the difficulty didn't affect at all the objectives.

Just replayed the mission and found a bug:

Spoiler

I did not kill Dougal (blackjacked him instead) before searching for the scepter. I also sent the levator back up after riding down to look what is underneath it. But after getting the scepter, the elevator does not respond to the button anymore. The button still makes a click sound and moves. But the levator seems to be stuck.

I noclipped around a bit and investigated button behaviour further:

The top button only sends the elevator down.

The bottom button only sends the elevator up.

 

There are two skybox leaks in the upper elevator room:

Between the planks of the closed door and in the small tunnel leading out near the ceiling.

 

Would be nice if knocking out Dougal would tick off the objective. Because there really is no need to kill him just for reading the note on the wall.

Apart from that, the mission is tiny but well polished and still looks good in 2.06.

Probably not record breaking but I speed-ghosted this one:
